and upon him

Morphological NotesConjunction וְ + preposition עַל + 3ms pronominal suffix ־ו ("him"); functions as a relational prepositional phrase.
Rendering RationaleThe preposition עַל conveys the idea of elevation or position over something, often with a downward or superimposed aspect. The prefixed conjunction וְ adds "and," and the 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix ־ו yields "him," producing the grammatically precise rendering "and upon him."
